Description

A concise guide to integrating environmental assessment into development projects, this book identifies five key areas which demand attention: natural habitat destruction; land degradation; the depletion and degradation of fresh water resources; agricultural, industrial and urban pollution; the degradation of “global commons”. It looks at a number of development projects, analysing their environmental impact and using them to generate a checklist of potential impacts for planners and managers. The book also provides economic analysis of environmental impacts and discusses environmental auditing. Case studies are included.
